all she was doing was shopping. unless she hit some old lady or tripped over something she is going to look composed. Shopping doesn't show composure.

I was actually referring to Kate keeping her composure while being constantly photgraphed, not keeping her composure while shopping. There is a difference. As we know, many "celebrities" react negatively to what they consider "harassment" by photographers. In this instance, Kate handled the situation with confidence and charm.

I could not agree more. It's so unattractive when celebs lose their cool with the paparazzi. I understand it's hard being trailed by the cameras all the time, but it is very impressive when you see someone stay cool, composed, and polite, as opposed to being all "in your face" and flipping off the cameras. I like the way Kate stays calm. But how can anyone be surprised? Look who her teacher is! Prince William is the King of Cool when he's being followed by the cameras.

I believe it is an officer appointed to guard William at all times. They are specially trained to blend in under all circumstances. If William drives, the guard rides in the passenger seat or the guard drives. The guard is always next or near him as close as possible in case of attempted assassination and/or kidnap. She looks kind of ticked in some of those pictures.

I’m very very confused about something. If you look one of Kate and Wills pictures( the very last one Sparks posted) underneath it is a text on Russian which says:Prince William witha girlat Ashberton Polo Club, July 2000, UK.”Obviously, the girl is Kate, but nobody knew her name at this time. Is it possible that William and Kate met before 2002, but kept it in deep secret? Or may be it is a tabloid's mistake

Well, didn't William begin classes at St. Andrew's in September 2001? I believe that is when he and Kate met, through Fergus Boyd, a friend William had had from Eton. I think fotobank must have messed up on the year. I might be wrong, but I've seen those pics before and they did not come out in 2000. They came out long after William had started at St. Andrews.
